The dream of a perfect love is gone and all that remains is disappointment and rejection.

Through actual adversity I discovered that nothing could crush me. Every injustice, every rejection, every betrayal only made me more independent.

We discard a friend as we do a shirt over a single stain.

O you free spirits, they will mock you, malign you, reject you: it will only make you more independent.

If you aren't ready for rejection, you aren't ready for love.

The standard rebuke to anyone who claims to be happy is either that they're selfish or living in denial.

If a circle shuts you out, draw a circle around it.

There's something much worse than being ignored-not being ignored.
